CANTERBURY MARKETS
(I* TELIGRAM.-rPIIISI ASSOCIATION.)
CHRISTCHURCH, 10th April. There h no change to report from the week-end in regard to ordinary grain and seed lines. The oat market is quiet. The potato crops dug in a number of districts are turning out somewhat disr appointingly. The proportion, of seed is unduly large, and growers, as a result of the smaller yields, are disposed to ask higher 'prices. Blight is reported to be fairly general on the heavier growing lands. Potatoes have been sold at up to £4 2s 6d per ton on trucks for the South, but this figure is beyond the general quotation, which is about £3 12s 6d to £3 17s 6d.
